Hope someone can help me with this, as I've tried everything I can think of !!!!!!

All I want to do is try to make the TV default to the AV1 input whenever I switch it on.

(This is where the Freeview Tuner / Tivo is connected and I watch everything through Tivo, which is left switched on 24/7)

Yet all that happens, is that the TV defaults to the normal, aerial - composite input (no input connected to TV there so I get a blank fuzzy screen) and then I have to press the AV button on the handset to switch it to AV1. Small probelm I know, but irritating !!

Anyone know which menu / settings I can adjust so that it will pick AV1 automatically on switch on ?

Really grateful for some help on this.

Cheers all.

Your stuck with that.....my Panny is the same. The only other way is to switch your freeview off...power up the TV first, then power up the freeview which will switch it over

Also, I called Panasonic today and they confirmed that the TV can't default to AV1. Yet my Toshiba rearpro can, no worries.

Is there a Panny service menu which might help ?

Cheers anyway.

There are 2 levels of service menu you can get into, but there is some serious s*** in there... You could end the Panny's life VERY quickly. There's nothing in there to do with AV sockets, so I advise you stay out og there unless you have problems out of guarantee.......
